17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The Swan, Goose and Duck, c1850" is a captivating print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins. The central image portrays three distinct birds - a swan, goose, and duck - each exuding its unique charm. Surrounding this centerpiece are several vignettes that offer glimpses into the manifold utility of these avian creatures. From geese in a lively farmyard to shooting wild ducks for sustenance, every aspect of their existence finds representation in this remarkable artwork. The intricate details capture various facets such as goose quills used for writing pens and handles crafted for artists' brushes. Feather mattresses symbolize comfort while swans and ducks gracefully glide on a pond at the Ornithological Society's premises in Regents Park, London. The print also highlights how these magnificent birds contribute to society's needs and desires during the Victorian era. Geese at markets signify their significance as food sources while swansdown becomes fashionable trimmings adorning clothing accessories. This comprehensive portrayal reflects not only the agricultural importance but also the cultural relevance of these feathered creatures. Hawkins' lithograph transports us back to 19th-century Britain where hunting wildfowl was an integral part of life for many individuals known as wildfowlers or hunters. It offers a glimpse into Royal Ornithological Society's endeavors within Regents Park, London – an institution dedicated to studying bird species. This stunning piece encapsulates both natural beauty and human interaction with nature through its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. It serves as a testament to Hawkins' talent as well as his collaboration with Thomas Varty in publishing "Graphic Illustrations of Animals and Their Utility to Man.
